1999 Mitsubishi Carisma GLXi review from Slovenia
"Carisma is not special car, but everything is on right position"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far nothing.
Minor trouble with transmission (1 st gear), but mechanic repaired it for free (Renault transsmision).
When the car was new I changed front light bulbs with Philliphs - Blue vision +50 % (15$).
General comments?
Seats fabric are nasty, but very good and comfortable.
The car is quite well equiped (clima, ABS, 4x airbags, pretension seat bealts, electric windows and mirrors, very good Clarion with CD...)
It's really good familly car for the price 12500 EUR.
Roominess is good also the trunk volume.
It's quiet car, even at high speed (170 or 180 km/h).
Fuel consumption and clima are best parts of this car (6,2L per 100 km at normal speed and about 10 L per 100 km at high speed 150 to 180 km/h).
